>> any explanation, mohammed, from the syrian government for this bombing? what possible reason would they have to bomb this village? >> reporter: well, don, the syrian government hasn't commented on this aerial bombardment yet. but opposition activists that we've spoken with say they believe the reason this town was targeted is because they say that the town was liberated in the past week, that rebel-free syrian army members went into the town, that they took it away from the control of syrian regime forces that had been there. the opposition activists we speak with say there had been a lot of anti-assad sentiment in that town. because of that, they believe this town was deliberately targeted as a part of a retaliation plan by the government. don? >> russian diplomats have been talking about possible asylum for assad. this bombing today has to play a part in the discussions in damascus. >> reporter: well, we certainly think it would have to, absolutely. and really is there any more striking juxtaposition as far as the failed attempts thus far by the diploma
